Happy Mario Day! These comics were originally published in Nintendo Power to tie-into Super Mario World, but had amassed enough of a cult following that they were later collected (and then later still reprinted!) in TPB form.

2.67-ish pages each. #1:

Mario is caught in the blast and petrified, so the Princess leaps after Bowser herself.

Early Super Mario Brothers stories were wacky, crazy, weirder then modern Super Mario Brothers stories. I absolutely love it.

This was hilarious and adorable, I loved it!

So, while Mario says 'Ciao' and 'Mama Mia', Luigi exclaims 'Egad!' That certainly influenced the voices I heard as I read the rest of the lines...

Not shown: Princess Peach wearing Luigi's outfit. It's one of this comic's highlights.

Still one of my favorite pieces of Mario media. I love how this Princess Peach is always ready to throw down.

So what's interesting is, this these got me to subscribe to Nintendo Power. Around this time, we saw more video game adaptations of Marvel comics, which were covered in the megazine, which in general helped me get into comics.
